Catherine Dickey 1738-1804 was daughter of Moses Dickey (d 1766) and his first wife Margaret (d 7 Jan 1759). Moses Dickey was a well-known miller and millwright who moved from Sadsbury Twp, Chester Co, PA about 1749 to Paxtang Twp, Lancaster Co, PA. (In modern terms his land would have been in Dauphin Co, PA, east of Harrisburg and the Borough of Paxton, and in Swatara Twp. His mill was on Spring Creek).
I have no datamation on a marriage to a Ferree.
